Well it's a good 'start', but what about rebuilding the garage and that small side door bit so you can fit in in there! You know you want to!

A car-port sounds good, not sure there's room for it though!

Doing something with that door to the side is on the cards, it's an alleyway to the back but wasted space so ideal for making the garage wider, just hope it's long enough! I haven't measured yet.

Just rip it down and build a new one to the correct 8 dimensions!

- has a louder more obnoxious exhaust than the S8, sounds great! Love this thing - Q7 was double the price, and certainly not double the car!
